Default Front End Alignment question

To the bike builders out there: I have an '03 Super Glide and had an '06 front end installed about a year ago (purchased on ebay). I rides fine and tracks great but when you look down at it while riding, everything is tweeked to the right. And when I turn all the way to the stops, it comes closer to the tank on the right than the left. Is this an issue of poor installation or did I buy a bad front end?

Loosen your triple trees on the forks and adjust by bumping your tire one way or the other until it is strait. I had this problem on an MX bike after I crashed during a race, it's and easy and quick fix. Might want to get the front end off the ground before you loosen your triple trees.
